Mission

The ED Collaboration Project was established to bring together the leadership of the four Spokane area hospital emergency departments.  The EDs all face similar challenges in managing emergency room utilization while maintaining high quality patient care.  

The Members of the group are:

Dr. Mike Wymore, Sacred Heart ED, Medical Director
Dr. Darin Neven, Sacred Heart ED, Consistent Care Director
Dr. Scott French, Deaconess ED, Medical Director
Dr. Mike Sicelia, Holy Family ED, Medical Director
Dr. Mark Mueller, Valley Hospital, ED representative
Lee Taylor, Project Access / Spokane Medical Society
Brian Myers, Empire Health Foundation, Capacity Building Grants Program

This Site is intended to create easy centralized access to data and information that will help meet the joint goals that have been established by this group.  These goals are: 

1. Ensure Continued Sharing of Patient Information in all Spokane EDs
2. Create City-Wide Standards for Clinical Evaluation in the Spokane EDs
3. Develop an Integrated Delivery System for Medical Services to Medicaid Insured Visitors to the ED
4. Create a Test for Gain Sharing Compensation Program
